Here's how I did it....

I started by sponging So Saffron ink & Pear Pizzazz ink to color the negative spaces.

Then I stamped the flower image from Creative Elements through the stencil using Calypso Coral ink.  I didn't worry, or expect, to get the full flower image...just a bit of it is a enough.

Then uncovered my work, and recovered it with the flower part of the stencil.  Then, using a Sponge Dauber, I colored around the flower designs with the Baja Breeze ink.  Once I was done I removed the stencil, adhered it to the Old Olive card stock, added to the Calypso Coral card base, and then added the punched ribbon & sentiments.
